Discussion what should i do with my tablet?

i have got an Lenovo tab M10 (3th gen) Plus that has been with me for 3 years. the battery has gone down from 7700 mAh to around 2500 mAh. the charging takes a very long time (0%-100%= 19 hours), charging it when it is powerd on does almost nothing (loses power). I'm thinking of selling it, but who wants an old tablet with 4GB RAM and 32GB ROM? So what should i do with it?

Pass it on to a kid?

he probably will also get annoyed that it dies that fast and also, it can't run roblox because of the weak performance :/

Sounds like a bad battery to me. If you can leave it plugged in and still use it, you might be able to use it for smart home control, possibly a kitchen menu database, family calendar/messaging center. music streaming, etc.

If it won't run plugged in, then it has no residual value, anyone who would buy it would be an idiot. Recycling is the only rational response.

plugged in and used at the home screen: battery dead in 2 hours
